Abstract
After a general reminder of the nature of polarization phenomena in high energy storage rings, the course reviews the laws governing the spin motion in magnetic fields and the origin of depolarizing mechanisms; a description of simple spin rotators is given as an application of the spin precession laws. The principles of operation of laser polarimeters are discussed and optimization criteria are introduced. Finally, the application of polarimetry to the calibration of accelerator parameters and particle resonances completes the review.
